There has NEVER EVER EVER been a dominant fighter like Khabib
GSP, Jon Jones, Silva etc they all got their ass beat in their career
Jon Jones vs Gustafsson or vs Reyes he got his ass beat
Even if Khabib stayed for 2 more years there were no one in Lightweight who could give him problems
This little Georgian goofy gremlin midget has cardio and thats it.... he couldn't finish an old men in that octagon
Even Topurias little ass got his shit rocked with that high kick... you have never seen Khabib get rocked... he took all the kicks Barboza had for him and kept marching forward
All i see is inferiority complex coming from these Georgian fighters
R1: 10-8, R2: 10-8, R3: submissionMichael Johnson wobbled Khabib and had him backing up. I wouldn't say "rocked" necessarily but it definitely was a punch that had some effect. Wasn't close to a finish so don't lose your mind and go on some rant because it's not what I'm claiming. But acting like Khabib never had a moment in the cage where he looked a bit vulnerable is false.

"Wobbled" is an overstatement ... "felt" and "affected" are more accurate, the latter which you said.
Khabib was in no way in danger, "rocked," "wobbled," etc.
Khabib did feel the power, circled away, and that was all there was to it.
It was an extremely minor event, that people like to over-analyze, because of Khabib's otherwise near-perfect performances in every fight.
A gross understatement? Then Merab must be a deity because he beat them; he must be even further beyond "really good" than them.I like Merab. Calling Dagestani fighters “really good” is a gross understatement and highly inaccurate. It’s a diss. When players used to try that shit with Michael Jordan, they usually regretted it on the basketball court. Let’s see if Merab lives to regret this one. That was a very tough fight.
It's going to be real embarrassing for you when you find out Khabib literally turned down fighting Aldo for the interim LW title.how is 37 year old aldo at elevation(already has shaky cardio) as good of a win as khabib, a cardio machine with some of the best grappling we've ever seen in the UFC? Aldo just lost to bautista because he refused to get off the fence, he is not the same challenge as khabib at this age
i'm sure he would accept to fight 37 year old aldo at elevation like merab did if he planned to hump him against the cage for 15 minutes.It's going to be real embarrassing for you when you find out Khabib literally turned down fighting Aldo for the interim LW title.
If Khabib thought he could hump Aldo to a decision and win an interim title then why didn't hei'm sure he would accept to fight 37 year old aldo at elevation like merab did if he planned to hump him against the cage for 15 minutes.
because it was a prime aldo, not at elevation, and khabib isn't a fail 30 takedowns and hump against the cage kind of fighter because he fights with skill and tries to finish fights unlike the sport ruiner merab who doesn't care about ruining a legend's chance at a title shot in the most boring way possibleIf Khabib thought he could hump Aldo to a decision and win an interim title then why didn't he
At least buy buy me dinner before you want to flirtOh shut up dork
Same. I took it as he didn't fight someone worthy of beating him, but he isn't unbeatable.Not really a diss and I'm a fan of Khabib.
